Description:
Clone formatting ICON and Format / Clone Formatting grayed out inside of text box.  Text selected inside of a text box unable to use clone formatting paint brush or Format / Clone Formatting option to make a clone of the text formatting.  This functionality does work properly in Draw text boxes however. (Note: Windows 10 version is affected also)

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create text box
2.Select inside of text box


Actual Results:
Clone Formatting ICON is not available (Grayed out)

Expected Results:
The ICON should not be grayed out and should function as in Draw (Draw seems to work correctly)


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
Nothing more to say about this.  Pretty simple to reproduce.  Note: Tested on MAC OSx and Windows 10 versions of Write
